«A newly-married woman has encounters with a strange woman who may be a
vampiress from the family's past. This movie earns the title at about the
halfway point in a fairly bloody dream sequence. This marks a third attempt at
Le Fanu's Carmilla that I've seen, and ranks somewhere between the other
two; it's not quite as bizarre or interesting as Blood and Roses, but is a lot more
effective than Terror in the Crypt.
It's also the most exploitive, with a fairly liberal dosage of sex and gore, and
thematically it deals with the bride's latent disgust and hatred of men. Since
her husband ends up being a bit of brute, this is understandable within the
context of the movie, but it's really hard to warm up to anything or anyone in
this exercise in mayhem. Unfortunately, the movie takes its time at certain
points when it should be moving the plot along, and it saves most of its mayhem
for the final ten minutes. The most memorable scene involves a naked woman with
a snorkel buried on the beach, a scene so oddly surreal that it feels like it's
in the wrong movie; it comes out of nowhere and nothing before or after really
matches it. Definitely a mixed bag, and not for the faint of heart» (Dave
Sindelar).
